Chapter 230: A Bewildering Act
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Aren’t you going home on New Year’s Eve?” Nan Zhe did not quite understand. Shen Yanqing said, “I came over after dinner with the elders at home. It’s fine.”
His father and Auntie Wang were very understanding of him. Besides, he would bring Nan Ge back tomorrow.
Seeing that they had gone out one by one and had not returned for a long time, Mr. Nan was worried. He put on his coat and walked out.
When they passed by the courtyard, Mr. Nan stopped in his tracks and looked at the blurry figure in the distance. He asked, “Is that you Little Shen?” Before Shen Yanqing saw who it was, he subconsciously replied.
Mr. Nan hurriedly called them in. “Why are you standing at the door and chatting? It’s freezing outside. Come in.”
After entering, when Mrs. Nan saw Shen Yanqing, a trace of surprise flashed across her eyes.
It was quickly replaced by joy.
“Little Shen, you’re here too? Did you just come from Huai City?”
Shen Yanqing nodded. After explaining, he handed the thing in his hand over.
“Oh. You shouldn’t have.” Although Mrs. Nan told him he did not have to bring a gift, she was still happy.
It was not about the price of the gift but the thought that counted.
This meant that Shen Yanqing, including his parents, cared about the Nan family.
The timing was just right. Nan Ge was just thinking about not being able to gather enough people to play mahjong when Shen Yanqing arrived.
Shen Yanqing was led by her to the mahjong table and sat down. After he sat down, he realized that something was wrong. He looked up and looked for Nan Ge. “I… don’t really know how to play mahjong.” “Huh?” Nan Ge was stunned. “Don’t you have mahjong at home?”
She had seen it at the Shen family’s old residence.
“That’s a set from Grandpa’s collection. My family…” Shen Yanqing hesitated.
Their family did not seem to know how to play poker or mahjong.
They did not have such an event at home during the New Year’s gathering.
Only his younger cousin knew how to play. As for him, he had learned a little from a few friends before, but only a little.
“It’s fine, it’s fine. At least Little Shen knows a little. He’s not like your father who can’t even recognize his cards.”
Mrs. Nan did not want to dampen the mood for Nan Ge. She also felt that it was indeed too boring for her son-in-law to watch the Spring Festival Gala when he visited during the New Year for the first time. It was not a bad thing to have some other entertainment.
Nan Zhe echoed, “You’ll get better once you start playing. I’m sure your slight
Imowledge of the game will serve you well enough.”
Shen Yanqing wanted to refuse at first, mainly because he was afraid that if he did not play as well, it would dampen the mood for everyone.
However, he heard that Mr. Nan did not know how to play. If he did not play, they would really not be able to play mahjong today.
He looked at Nan Ge and smiled. “I’ll try first. If I really don’t know, I’ll ask you secretly.”
“Okay!” Nan Ge felt that when she had time in the future, she had to teach Shen Yanqing a few more games. Playing mahjong was the most basic thing. This way, he could make up for numbers whenever necessary.
That night, Mr. Nan sat at the side and watched the four of them fight.
On the other hand, Shen Yanqing was calm and composed from the beginning to the end. His actions were coherent and smooth when playing mahjong. Also, he showed good temperament while playing.
However, Mr. Nan thought about it carefully. It seemed that Shen Yanqing had never won that night.
During the entire process, he looked like a mahjong tile rack.
Of course, he did a few outrageous things. For example, Nan Ge had cheated under the table and asked him for cards. Shen Yanqing did not look like someone who would do such a thing. Just as he was about to give it to her, Nan Zhe caught him red-handed.
However, Nan Ge could not be blamed for wanting to cheat. It was mainly because Nan Zhe seemed to be on a real good streak of luck that night. He even disregarded his own mother and won lots of money.
Without a doubt, Shen Yanqing lost the most.
Nan Ge had lost more than 60,000. After waking up in the morning and washing up, she secretly asked him how much she had lost.
Shen Yanqing had never calculated it before. When she asked this question, he stopped in his tracks and sat down seriously.
“A little more than you.”
“70,000?” Nan Ge guessed.
He looked at her with his eyes curved. He said nothing.
It was obvious that something was wrong with his expression. She guessed again. “Is it 100,000?”
“That’s good.”
“Perfect. I’m glad that you didn’t lose too much.”
Nan Ge was relieved. Just as she was about to go back and catch up on her sleep, she heard him add, “I lost 100,000 more than you.”
Nan Ge almost vomited blood.
In fact, compared to Nan Zhe playing mahjong with his friends outside, neither she nor Shen Yanqing lost much tonight.
Together, they might not have lost as much as Nan Zhe had won outside in a single round.
However, this was a game at home after all. This was the first time Shen Yanqing had come to visit. It seemed like Nan Zhe had gone a little overboard. 𝙗𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝒎
Of course, Nan Ge was not the only one who thought so.
Not long after Nan Ge brought Shen Yanqing upstairs, Nan Zhe’s parents detained him.
“Look at you. It’s one thing if you wanted to steal all our money, but you didn’t even let Little Shen off! ”
Nan Zhe did not like hearing this and quickly retorted, “I’m innocent. What do you mean by steal? He’s sitting opposite me. I can’t see his cards, right?”
“Did you have to play so quickly? Didn’t you see me looking at you? You could have played every round a little slower and given Little Shen some room to perform!”
‘ He really did not see it.
As she had slept a little late last night, Nan Ge slept all the way in the car. She had gone to the Shen family’s old residence before. Also, the two families had just finished discussing their marriage, and Nan Ge had seen Shen Yanqing’s uncle’s family, so she was not as uneasy as before.
The atmosphere in the Shen family was good. The family treated her as the center of attention and did not show any signs of neglect.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Nan Ge brought Shen Yanqing back to her grandmother’s house in Jiang City.
Fortunately, her grandmother lived near the border and was not too far away. On the wav, Nan Ge also sizhed. Fortunatelv, both families were located in neighboring cities. If they were separated by the north and south, no matter how long the car ride was, it would be a little troublesome to run on both sides every Spring Festival in the future.
After staying at her grandmother’s house until the afternoon, her uncle and father were drunk. Nan Zhe had already stopped drinking and everyone was resting.
Nan Ge and Shen Yanqing had nothing to do and planned to go out for a walk.
At the end of the alley was Shen Yanqing’s grandmother’s house.
Nan Ge looked in that direction, but when Shen Yanqing came over from behind, she looked away.
She remembered that Shen Yanqing had said that in his mother’s opinion, it was a mistake for him to visit his grandmother or contact his relatives.
Other than the time the two of them met here last year, Shen Yanqing had not come here again in the past year.
Until now, Nan Ge still could not understand some of Shen Yanqing’s mother’s actions.
How confusing.
How could a mother hate her child so much?
Since she didn’t like him, why did she get married back then? Why did she give birth to him?
Moreover, the most contradictory thing was that she tirelessly wanted to keep her child out of her life while trying to control his life.
Nan Ge could only summarize this behavior in five words: something was wrong with her..
